What 8 Fashion Publicists Want for the Holidays + Pinterest Giveaway

I pride myself on being a pretty rad gift-giver, so I have really enjoyed sharing great products ideas as well as the regular PR Couture fare this month through our holiday gift guides. From the fashion PR girl and fashion PR guy essentials, to ideas for your boss and favorite clients (tweet ’em out if you like them!) I hope you found a few discoveries!

What 8 Fashion Publicists Want for the Holidays

For our final holiday gift guide in 2012 (because there’s no way I’m only going to do this once a year), I asked a few of my favorite fashion publicists from all over the country to share one special thing on their wish list. You can learn so much about a person by asking (and getting them to actually confess!) what they’re got their eye on. Whether it’s stocking up on that quintessential red lipstick, after work-loungewear or jewelry to celebrate a special family member, each choice is a perfect reflection of the individual.

Pinterest Giveaway

Make sure you are following the PR Couture board on Pinterest. Then, pin your favorite wish list item (or pin them all for up to eight entries) with the hashtag #prcouture and be entered to win one of four autographed copies of Susan J. Ashcroft’s book, Will Work for Shoes, a great insider’s guide to the world celebrity product placement. Winners will be chosen by random and announced via a comment on your pin on or around December 28.

Bonus! Here’s mine:
